I was born in Mie, Japan, spent 5 years in Osaka (when i was a kindergartner), grew up and spent most of my life (14 years) in Kyoto.
I studied "the multicultural society in California" in the United States for one year when I was in the 3rd grade in university.

My friends describe me as a talkative and outgoing person. I love to meet new people, talk with, and share the same time together. My favorite time is talking with my friends like forever with a cup of coffee in STARBUCKS.
At the same time, I don't hate being by myself, too. I can go by myself anywhere I want such as a theater, a restaurant for family, and karaoke.
I never had troubles with anyone who I stayed with, (my host family in Santa Monica and Riverside and roommates in Riverside), so it's going to be no problem!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm gonna travel Spain next March by myself. Then, I'm thinking that I really want to have very different kinds of experiences from "the trip" just looking around some famous places. I really would like to see TRUE Spain! In order to accomplish this purpose, I want to meet and talk with many new people in Spain. Also, I wanna try to travel with Spanish. These are why I am on Couchsurfing!

Interests

TALKING with people. I love to talk. I love to share our feelings. (And I love girls' talk♥)
TRAVELING. Off course, I love traveling the world. I almost work hard as a part time job in order to travel around the world. Spain is my first trip to Europe.
DANCE. I took part in a dance club activity when I was a high school student and university student (until 3rd grade). I dance Hip Hop or R&B Hip Hop. For about 2 years, I've stopped dancing, so I miss dancing. In Spain, I want to see and be taught Flamenco♥
MUSIC. I like all sort of music. I used to play the piano, so I like classic music. And I like to listen to music. I listen many kinds of music. (Like Shakira, Chenelle, Taylor Swift, Usher.....and so on) Also, I love to sing. Currently I'm practicing the songs in the movie, "Frozen." One of my favorites is "For the First Time in Forever" in that! Spoken to "Frozen," I love to see a musical, too.
READING. Until recently, I hated reading any books. However, these days, I really like to read books, especially novels.
